That is too bad. I thought K.Joseph would have made a fine 3rd string SF.

I guess this move (and the addition of Faverani) means that G-Wallace will be the main backup SF and Bogans the third string SF. With Boston using two big men in it's starting lineup.

Eh, it's more polite to waive him now if you know you're not going to use him than to string him along through training camp so he can't latch on anywhere else.  Now he has the rest of the summer to find a new team, instead of when it's too late.

3 years?  More like 6 months...  In 3 years he would be waived twice, twice.

non-guaranteed salary filler.

He was added to help make the salaries work for the trade rules but keep the actual salary absorbed by the C's lower.
